mc — Morph Code

A compiled fork of Claude Code with WarpGrep semantic code search, multi-provider LLM support, and subagent orchestration. Ships as a single native binary per platform.

Install

curl -fsSL subagents.com/install | bash

Or with npm:

npm install -g @morphllm/morphcode

Usage

# Interactive mode
mc

# Single prompt
mc -p "refactor the auth module"

# Print mode (non-interactive, for scripts)
mc -p "explain this codebase" --print

# Specify model
mc --model claude-sonnet-4-6
mc --model opus

# List available agents
mc agents

What's different from Claude Code

WarpGrep agent — Semantic code search powered by Morph. The warpgrep subagent understands code structure, not just text patterns. Always registered alongside Explore and Plan.

Compiled binary — Ships as a native Mach-O / ELF binary (like Claude Code itself). Starts instantly, no runtime dependencies.

Multi-provider LLM — Set PI_ENGINE=on to route through OpenAI, Google, Mistral, or any provider supported by pi-ai.

Explore & Plan agents — Always enabled. The Explore agent prefers WarpGrep over regex grep when available.

Development

# Run from source (requires Bun)
cd packages/subagent-cli
bun run --preload ./stubs/globals.ts ./src/entrypoints/cli.tsx

# Build native binary
bun build --compile _entry.ts --outfile dist/mc --target bun

# Run tests
npx vitest --run

# List agents
bun run --preload ./stubs/globals.ts ./src/entrypoints/cli.tsx agents

Architecture

Built on Claude Code v2.1.88 source, compiled to a native binary via bun build --compile.
